Please bring something nutritious/wholesome to share for after we are done. This is the time we use to discuss what we’ve experimented with and answer any questions you might have. It’s also a great time to get to know one another!

Study Group 2013

Topics will vary monthly. Some months we will focus on 1 herbs, some months we’ll take a walk and learn about many. The study group will include reading the lesson, doing ‘experiments, discussing further study and advanced work options (that each person will do on their own at home over the course of the month), and ending with group discussion on general topics while enjoying refreshments. Each month we will discuss what was taught/studied the previous month before starting a new lesson.

April 24, 2013 - Using the Weeds that Grow in Your Backyard

 

Tonight we had a great time exploring the wild plants behind the Blum House! We harvested Burdock leaf stalks, Nettles, Chickweed, Cleavers, Daylily, Catnip and Dock and cooked up a sauté along with some Dandelion leaves, flowers and buds, Violet flowers and leaves, Onion and Garlic for a delicious treat!

We also took a look at Motherwort and Elder growing nearby and discussed how to eat Thistles.

Next month we’ll be making Herbal vinegars! Bring an 8 oz jar or two and some organic Apple Cider Vinegar (Bragg’s is my favorite choice unless I can get locally made ACV) or your favorite vinegar and we’ll make some vinegars from the local “weeds”!

Get the handout here.
